In any case hardly think commenting on your opinion Wigan are going do make announcements in a certain way by pointing to them doing the opposite is jumping to conclusions.
What I'm saying is people have taken the major issues, and made their own demands regarding what constitutes a satisfactory response from the club.
They didn't give us these but informed they had been resolved and actually gave us a lot more information on the events surrounding them. Not only that, but how things have been put in place, and changed. For instance the design of next year's kit begins next week.
So many useful and great points has been, and my point was not a critisism of your attendence, but your conclusions based on the basic summaries I am referring to. I did include that in my initial reply to you Dave.

Which is of course nothing like the same sort of conformation/announcement you claim the club will engage in from now on. Roberts is still not a confirmed signing by the club but it suited them to wheel him out. I am sure this new announcement policy will be bent as they see fit.
Again jumping to conclusions or merely just being a cynic. The lad had landed, jet lagged and just seen the club for the first time. He's been told a lot about the supporters and the club, I can only imagine it would have been in his interest and that of the clubs to show up.
We have not announced the signing as he has not been registered as it would constitute a rule break, but there was no harm in showing him the fans.
If they had all the media there and announced him as a new Wigan player to all and sundry, you may have a point, but the chairman said clearly that he will be announced as a Wigan player on the arrival of George Carmont's passport.
They simply don't want to have eggg on their face to the rugby league world and also want to play by the rules in their view too, something we've lacked over recent years.

There really hasn't, if you was referring to what people are dubbing an 'official' image you'll find it is nowhere near, representing no contradiction on the club's behalf.
